  • KOMPSAT-3, 3A호의 운용 및 다양한 특성을 가지는 차세대중형위성의 발사에 따라서, 고해상도 위성영상의 활용이 지속적으로 증대되고 있다. 특히, ARD (Analysis Ready Data) 형태로의 위성영상 제공을 위하여 기하보정 및 방사보정 등의 다양한 전처리에 대한 연구가 이루어지고 있다. 위성영상의 전처리를 위해서는 촬영 영상에 관한 보조정보가 필요하며, 태양 천정각, 태양 방위각, 촬영각 등이 대표적인 자료이다. 그러나, 대부분의 고해상도 위성영상은 영상 전체에 대한 태양 천정각 및 촬영각을 단일 변수로 제공하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 RFM (Rational Function Model) 및 영상의 보조정보들을 이용하여 영상의 각 화소에 대응되는 태양 천정각 및 촬영각을 산출해보고, 이에 따른 품질을 평가해보고자 하였다. 특히, 화소 기반의 태양 천정각 및 촬영각의 활용을 위하여, 대기상부 반사율(top of atmospheric reflectance)을 산출함에 있어서, 화소 기반의 보조 자료를 적용하고, 단일 상수 기반의 대기상부 반사율과의 비교평가를 수행하였다. 실험 결과, 화소 기반의 태양 천정각 및 촬영각 정보는 보조정보와 유사한 경향을 보였으며, 이를 이용하여 계산된 대기상부 반사율은 왜곡이 감소되었음을 확인하였다.

  • In maritime environment, it is necessary to understand the characteristics of sunglint since it may degrade the target detection performance of the infrared sensor mounted weapons. In this paper, sunglint in LWIR band is modeled using the slope distribution of the sea surface, and is verified by comparing the radiance of a simulated result with that of the real world. According to the simulation, sunglint is critical when the solar zenith angle is over $60^{\circ}$. The peak radiance of sunglint grows as the solar zenith angle increases until it reaches $83^{\circ}$ and has a large difference depending on the solar zenith angle when the wind speed is small. Finally, seasonal and temporal characteristics of sunglint effects are analyzed. In summer, sunglint is dominant in the horizon near the solar azimuth right after sunrise and before sunset. However, in winter, the influence of sunglint lasts even during the daytime since the elevation of the sun is much lower than in summer.

  • In this study, the transient second or third layer on the topside of the Martian ionosphere were investigated with the most recently released Mars advanced radar for subsurface and ionospheric sounding/Mars Express data obtained from January 2010 to September 2011 to study the correlation between these topside additional layers and surface magnetic fields, solar zenith angle and solar activities. When examining the zones where the topside layer appeared, the occurrence rate of the topside layer was low at the areas with a strong Martian crustal magnetic field as observed by the Mars global surveyor. The occurrence rate of additional layers on the Martian topside ionosphere decreases as the solar zenith angle increases. However, these layers appeared significantly near the terminator of which solar zenith angle is $90^{\circ}$. In comparison between F10.7 which is the index of solar activities and the occurrence rate of the topside layer by date, its occurrence rate was higher in 2011 than in 2010 with less solar activities. The result of this study will contribute to better understanding of the environments in the topside of the ionosphere through the correlation between the various conditions regarding the Martian ionosphere and the transient layer.

  • We have examined seasonal and annual means of clear-sky solar noon and daily erythemal ultraviolet-B irradiances measured in Anmyeon. The intensity of the EUV-B irradiance is mainly dependent on solar zenith angle (SZA) and total ozone amounts on clear day conditions. The daily maximum occurs near solar noon time and the highest monthly accumulated EUV-B is seen in July in Anmyeon. The maximum daily variation occurs in June and July due to precipitation and clouds. The 7-year trend of EUV-B irradiance shows that it is slightly increasing. Additionally, we could confirm that aerosol effects such as Asian Dust decreases the EUV-B irradiance reaching the ground surface by 35% to 60%. For more than 45% of the summer days, EUV-B irradiacne was high enough that the UV index registered higher than category Extremely High. This information will be very important for evaluation of the UV index for prevention of both skin cancer and ecosystem damages as well as to understand UV climatology over the Korean Peninsula.

  • 대기 가열율과 복사속의 연직 분포를 계산하기 위하여 two-stream/delta-Eddington 근사법을 이용한 복사전달모형이 개발되었다. 이 모형의 결과를 ICRCCM의 결과와 비교하므로써 모형의 완성도를 평가하였다. 이 모형은 정확성 뿐 아니라 경제적인 면에서도 태양복사를 계산하는데 적합한 것으로 증명되었다. 대기 꼭대기에서의 복사속과 지표에서의 복사속 간의 관계를 비교하므로써 자외선 B 영역(UV-B; 280-320nm)의 특징들이 검토되었다. 이 영역에서는 강한 오존 흡수가 있어 UV-B의 관계가 2차 함수로 나타난다. 또한, 성층권 오존 감소와 화산 폭발로 기인한 성층권 에어로졸 안개가 UV-B 복사에 미치는 영향을 다양한 태양의 천정각에서 조사했다. 태양의 천정각이 증가함에 따라 지표 UV-B도 증가하였다. 성층권 에어로졸은 후방 산란을 통해 행성 반사도를 증가시켰다. 행성 반사도는 에어로졸 효과로 인해 태양의 천정각이 증가함에 따라 증가한다. 그러나, 행성 반사도의 변화가 태양의 천정각 변화에 따라 민감하게 나타나지는 않는다. 이것은 태양의 천정각이 클 때 에어로졸의 산란 효과가 상대적으로 긴 복사 경로에서 포화되었기 때문일 것이다. 끝으로, 화산 폭발에서 비롯된 성층권 에어로졸이 지표 UV-B 복사 강도에 미치는 지역적 영향이 추정되었다. 고위도에서는 에어로졸의 광자 포획(photon trap)이나 일몰 효과로 복사 강도가 증가하는 반면 저위도에서는 감소한다. 고위도에서 에어로졸의 산란과 오존 흡수는 지표 UV-B 복사의 최대 증가는 봄 기간 중에 양 반구 모두 중위도에서 나타난다.

  • Radio waves including GPS signals, various TV communications, and radio broadcasting can be disturbed by a strong solar storm, which may occur due to solar flares and produce an ionospheric delay anomaly in the ionosphere according to the change of total electron content. Electron density irregularities can cause deep signal fading, frequently known as ionospheric scintillation, which can result in the positioning error using GPS signal. This paper proposes a detection algorithm for the ionosphere delay anomaly during a solar storm by using multi-reference stations. Different TEC grid which has irregular electron density was applied above one reference station. Then the ionospheric delay in zenith direction applied different TEC will show comparatively large ionospheric zenith delay due to the electron irregularity. The ionospheric slant delay applied an elevation angle at reference station was analyzed to detect the ionospheric delay anomaly that can result in positioning error. A simulation test was implemented and a proposed detection algorithm using data logged by four reference stations was applied to detect the ionospheric delay anomaly compared to a criterion.

  • The land surface reflectance is a key parameter influencing the climate near the surface. Therefore, it must be determined with sufficient accuracy for climate change research. In particular, the characteristics of the bidirectional reflectance distribution function (BRDF) when using earth observation system (EOS) are important for normalizing the reflected solar radiation from the earth's surface. Also, wide swath satellites like SPOT/VGT (VEGETATION) permit sufficient angular sampling, but high resolution satellites are impossible to obtain sufficient angular sampling over a pixel during short period because of their narrow swath scanning. This gives a difficulty to BRDF model based reflectance normalization of high resolution satellites. The principal objective of the study is to add BRDF modeling of high resolution satellites and to supply insufficient angular sampling through identifying BRDF components from SPOT/VGT. This study is performed as the preliminary data for apply to high-resolution satellite. The study provides surface parameters by eliminating BRD effect when calculated biophysical index of plant by BRDF model. We use semi-empirical BRDF model to identify the BRD components. This study uses SPOT/VGT satellite data acquired in the S1 (daily) data. Modeled reflectance values show a good agreement with measured reflectance values from SPOT satellite. This study analyzes BRD effect components by using the NDVI(Normalized Difference Vegetation Index) and the angle components such as solar zenith angle, satellite zenith angle and relative azimuth angle. Geometric scattering kernel mainly depends on the azimuth angle variation and volumetric scattering kernel is less dependent on the azimuth angle variation. Also, forest from land cover shows the wider distribution of value than cropland, overall tendency is similar. Forest shows relatively larger value of geometric term ($K_1{\cdot}f_1$) than cropland, When performed comparison between cropland and forest. Angle and NDVI value are closely related.

  • Atmospheric correction of satellite measurements is a major step to estimate accurate surface reflectance of solar spectrum channels. In this study, Simplified Method for the Atmospheric Correction (SMAC) radiative transfer model used to retrieve surface reflectance from MODIS (MODerate resolution Imaging Spectrometer) top of atmosphere (TOA) reflectance. It is fast and simple atmospheric correction method, so it uses for work site operation in various satellite. This study attempts a test of accuracy of SMAC through a sensitivity test to detected error sources and to improve accuracy of surface reflectance using SMAC. The results of SMAC as compared with MODIS surface reflectance (MOD09) was represented that low accuracy ($R^2\;=\;0.6196$, Root Means Square Error (RMSE) = 0.00031, bias = - 0.0859). Thus sensitivity analysis of input parameters and coefficients was conducted to searching error sources. Among the input parameters, Aerosol Optical Depth (AOD) is the most influence input parameter. In order to modify AOD term in SMAC code, Stepwise multiple regression was performed with testing and remove variable in three stages with independent variables of AOD at 550nm, solar zenith angle, viewing zenith angle. Surface reflectance estimation by using Newly proposed AOD term in the study showed that improve accuracy ($R^2\;=\;0.827$, RMSE = 0.00672, bias = - 0.000762).

  • Albedo is one of the critical parameters for understanding global climate change and energy/water balance. In this study, we used red and NIR reflectance from Satellite Pour I'Obervation de la Terre (SPOT)/Vegetation (VGT) S1 product. The product is preprocessed for users that they are atmospherically corrected using Simple Method Atmospheric Correction (SMAC) by Vision on Technology (VITO) for calculating broadband albedo. Roujean's Bi-directional Reflectance Distribution Function (BRDF) model is a semi-empirical method used for BRDF angular integration and inversion. Each kernel of Roujean's model was multi integrated by angle components (i.e., viewing zenith, solar zenith, and relative azimuth angle). Black-sky hemispherical function is integrated by observational angle; whereas, white-sky hemispherical efficient is integrated by incident angle. Estimated spectral albedo of red ($0.61{\sim}0.68{\mu}m$, B2) and near infrared ($0.79{\sim}0.89{\mu}m$, B3) have a good agreement with MODIS albedo products.
